A little bit of everything this weekend...

Overall: A good weekend. Starting things off right with Timmer as we rubbed elbows with some of the phenoms of the Worldwide Leader in Sports (Michael Kim, Trey Wingo, Andy Katz, Kenny Mayne). Yes sir... ESPN bought out Lake Compounce for the night and Timmer and I had a BLAST! We ate so much food... rode as many rides as our stomachs would handle... got to see some live jazz at the Waterfront stage... And we each got a souvenir in the process (even if it took Timmer like 10 min. to make one basket...oh shoot...did I say that out loud? Hehe...sorry Tim.) Too bad our last picture riding the BoulderDash Rollercoaster didn't come out... it would have been easily the PICTURE OF THE DAY..



Meanwhile, Carey and Jack drove down from Maine and Beth came in from New York. So nice seeing everyone. Unfortunately, as ESPN schedule worked out, I was on to train in the Mailroom this Saturday. Can I get a whoa BAD TIMING? But it wasn't that bad really...Beth, Care, and my mom got to spend some quality time together while I work until 5:30. The work day went by pretty quickly... and we got to visit when I got home. After a great dinner and a few cannolis, Carey finally opened Kristen's gift. She LOVED IT! And as you can see by the picture, so did Jumpin' Jack...Unfortunately Kristen wasn't able to make the trip since she was absolutely buried in work... :( We'll figure out some sort of visit soon...ok? We fit in a short visit to the Grandparents condo in Bristol and then returned back hom to watch a little bit of DRUMLINE. Yes, he's only 7 weeks old and I'm already teaching him the ways of Talent, Unity, and Pride...



Sunday came and went, and Jack was soon on the road. I got to see Brendan and Dan's new place in East Hartford. Nice place. We ate some stromboli and watched football. Haven't really hung out with Brendan since the UConn game so it was nice getting together again. Speaking of UConn Football...2-0!!! Hell yeah boys... Keep it going. Bring your A game to Rentschler on Saturday. I'll be there BRIGHT and EARLY!! Which ALSO reminds me...WELCOME BACK BEN!!!Connecticut missed ya...good to have you back, bud...

Alright...back into the crazy World of Hogwarts and then I'm off to bed. (Book Four - Chapter 21!!) Heading into a long 5 day work week...good thing we have the UConn/BC game to look forward too...Until next time everyone...

And the truth is...I miss you...
